Remember when your mom taught you how to cook at home? Or maybe it was in Home-Economics when you made your first batch of cookies with a cup of sugar in them? Or the time you made chicken that wasn't all the way cooked andy our dad liked it anyway? Well I've been cooking most of my life and I still don't know how!

Alaska Men's Magazine

I lived in Alaska 14 years and never saw guys that were this cute up there!  But I did find a bunch of them who would try and run me over when waiting for a bus in Anchorage, and splash me with mud on purpose.  I dated one who left me at a Mexican restaurant one time after having a severe acid reflux attack and called me a bunch of names because I had "embarrassed him."  One time I was waiting for a bus in Anchorage and a guy went by and said --"Why don't you get a job barfly?"  Amazing to me is that I was working two jobs at the time and have never drank a day in my life.  When I lived in Wasilla I had one man follow me home and accuse me of drinking and driving!  Maybe because I wasn't skinny enough for these men and wasn't blonde and blue eyed who knows?  There is alot of alcoholism, wife abuse, and drunks in Alaska.  I don't think the Alaska Men's Magazine mentions that however.

When I was in high school I was always told I was too fat and I weighed appromately 140-150 pounds and at almost 5 feet 7 inches tall that wasn't fat at all. I think the abuse of family members and my ex-husband and boyfriends caused me to gain weight more than anything. When you are beaten with a belt by a brother it causes emotional issues. When your sister screams at you all night long she hopes you become a prostitute when you are just 19 it causes emotional issues. Or when you are married and your husband constantly puts you down and calls you an educated idiot, that you can't do anything right causes emotional issues. I know this is why I've gained my weight. But again I'm on ano...

Provident Living

I think this would be a good book to have for Provident Living. Our pioneer ancestors didn't have supermarkets or farmer's markets to buy groceries, they didn't have washer & dryer's (I wash my clothes out by hand as I live in an apartment), they didn't have cars or buses to get around, they didn't have foodstamps or welfare or even social security checks. But families back then helped one-another. A sick aunt or mother was taken care of by their families. They had large families back then and everyone helped with the chores: from spring planting, to weeding the gardens, growing vegetables, and the many chores the mother's had such as cooking over a wood stove, ironing, washing clothes in hot boiling water than having to put them on clotheslines and iron. They didn't have microwave ovens back then either. A cake was made from scratch, bread was home-made, and the only treats the kids got were at Christmas time. My mother said for Christmas t...
